We went to the store on...it was probably Wednesday, and, to kill time while waiting for something completely unrelated to open. So I took some more pictures -- with my regular camera, and with the phone's camera.

I thought it might be nice to give a better idea of the size of the phone somehow, like I did with my camera and that altoids tin. The two packs of that new Trident gum worked well for that, since I happened to have them.

...then I forgot to continue the 'this is how big it is compared to' theme. Instead, I started on this slow downward spiral of space-wasting. First, with pictures of my phone's new wallpaper. I didn't mean for the image to be slightly too large, but I happen to like how it turned out. So I'm keeping it for a while.

It's hard to see, but I'm using the same image on the outside screen, too. Sorta. If it were literally the same image, the background of the inside screen would be completely black, and 'kittylump' wouldn't even be on the screen at all.

I still have to tweak the one I'm using on the outside screen a bit. I'm still not happy with it, because of that white line at the top -- but it's better than white lines down the side, so I'll live.

I also took some pictures with the phone's camera. The first picture I posted from it isn't exactly a fair representation of what it can do -- or maybe it is. I don't really know how people judge that sort of thing. I was using the 'night' picture setting in a fairly dark room, where the only light was from a computer monitor and a television. For that, the picture wasn't bad.

Once I remembered to turn the damned flash off, I managed to get this picture [again, the packs of gum, because they were handy]. I set my regular camera back to 3mp to get comparison shots, but the one that would've gone alongside this one came out blurry. The two taken with flash are okay, though.

So it's not the worst thing in the world. If I could just get the hang of how long to hold down the button, it might be better -- just in case I don't have my regular camera with me. The button is tricky, you see. If you hold it down too long, it switches to video mode.

I haven't used it to take any video yet. I'm not sure what that's going to be like. I thought about trying it out, but the most exciting thing happening anywhere near me was Gremlin writing on his new phone, and that's not really worth it.

...which is why things like this picture happened.

And this. Because I discovered that my phone has an 'edit' function on pictures. And then this crap called 'fun frames'.
